Easter weekend is here, and with a four-day break ahead, it's the perfect time catch a mix of non-edible and edible species.
From kob and grey sharks to bream and snoek, the KZN coast is alive with action – from epic harbour hotspots to big catches and everything in between.
With the Durban Ski Boat Festival just around the corner and a slew of hotspots, there's plenty for every angler, whether you're at sea or on the dam over the long weekend.
